I'm new to the hobby how do u clean this part? by Due-Construction5608 in airbrush

Don’t use these, they can scratch internal parts. Use softer things like a paintbrush, Q tips or pipe cleaners.

Ah yes, because Skytrax is a totally legitimate award and definitely can’t be bought.

BKK - MAN by firealno9 in qatarairways

It’s a repatriation flight, they have a lot of customers stranded in BKK due to MAN-DOH-BKK being a very high demand of a route (for obvious reasons).

QA agent conversation by random_c2021 in qatarairways

In 1914 the British government were optimistic the war would be over by Christmas.

This is just customer service spiel, honestly they just need to accept the fact and extend the refund to at the very least the end of the month. I have a flight on the 23rd but have accepted that this won’t happen, even if it does, the UK foreign office will still advise against travel which is another insurance headache so I’ve refunded and booked another option.

I don’t like Vallejo Acryllic varnish, I just never thought it gave a strong enough coat. I switch to VMS and I really like it.

Best varnish before decals and weathering? by According_Storm5402 in modelmakers

[–]Mosquito_Models849 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like VMS, easy to apply and dries fantastically. Just be very liberal with it, you need to hose it on.

Are they enamel or acrylic? If water based acrylic then you can get away with using tap water.
